Ancient Bistor In China,

The history of the Liu-Kiuans can only
be regarded rs hazy. however circum.
stantial, when we find that they extend
back to the year 1865 b. g., when two
ancestors OF their race somehow came
into being and were called Ono mel kiu.
They married and had three sons and
two daughters. The eldest son was Tien.
tsil, or the grandson of heaven, and he
was the first king of the islands; from the
second son descended the tributary
princes, and from the third son the COM
mon people. The eldest daughter was
called Kun-Kun. the spirit of heaven, and
the second daughter was Tche.tcho, the
spirit of the sea. Thereafter the historian
becomes confused or forgetful, for the
traditions skip over some $4,000 years.
during which twenty-five dynasties had
had their day and ceased to be, and bring
us at one step to A. ID. 1857, when Chun-
tien began his reign, and the authentic
history of the islands which. it will be
observed, is some 800 years later than
the alleged discovery of the Chinese trav-
eller, Chu-Kwan. The main island is
only five days sail from Foo Chow, and
it is on record that one OF the emperOrs
of the Sui dynasty sent an expedition
accompanied by many learned people to
request the king of Liu-Kiu to come and
pay homage, THIS the king declined to
do, whereupOn the emperor sent an army
of 10000 men who defeated the Liu
kiuans. killed the king, burned the cap
ltol, captured 5000 slaves, and then re
turned to China.

Reference was made to decrepit lady

seventy years Of age. She wore all the
colors Of the rainbow In her makeup,
which was Of the simplest form. Her
little straw hat, which looked as If It
might have done, service these past
twenty summers, was arranged with
some five or six colors of ribbon, some
well worn, others quite fresh. The bal
ance of her costume consisted Of a rather
faded and large figured calico dress
with sash of green ribbon about the
waist. She was very much stoop-
shouldered and her parambulations were
not brisk by any means.
THAT old lady" he continued, "has .
son, a captain In the queens guards. l

a Scotch lady and when her husband WAS
alive they owned what Is now one OF the

Jewels are purchased not be bought and
sold, but to remain as permanent posses.
sions, or to be given 10 dearly loved
friends, and they are the last things to be
parted'with.
These four things are what make Gods
jewels SO precious.
First the original cost.
Second, the great labor and pains taken
to fit them for their destined place.
Third, their imperishable nature.
Fourth, their fixed and unchanging
value.
Let us now consider the care with
which Gods jewels are guarded. He
never slumbers, nor for one moment
loses sight of his peculiar treasures He
is ever thinking OF them and ever de-
lighting himself in them.
There are those who would rob Christ
of his jewels, who put forth every effort
to gam possession Of them, but he Is never
off his guard, and their efforts are futile.
And they shall be mine, saith the Lord
Of Hosts, in that day when l make up my

And the Jewels of God will all be

A New Drive Planned,

A movement is being talked of. which,
il carried out, would make one of the
the finest drives in the country.
Should it be carried into effect it would
make a continuous drive from Omaha
over the new wagon bridge along the
new boulevard, the ordinance establish
ing the same having just passed the city
council, and continuing through the new
route on to Madison street around into
Graham avenue, Fairmont park. ETC.,
making a drive from Omaha of about
seven miles and with as fine scenery as
could be wished for.
One plan is to grade up to Lookout
Point" near the cemetery on Avenue q
and Oakland avenue and extend Avenue
q to connect with Madison street. An
other plan is to grade the side hill enter
ing Lookout Point" from the north, or
opening Oakland avenue through Fair.

road from the west.

GROWTH OF A BIG BOOK. When Web
ster's Unabridged was first published in
one volume. it was a comparatively
small book. Some years after an adj
dition was made Of 1900 Pictorial Illus
trations, A Table of aynonyms, and an
Appendix of New Words that had come
into use. A few years later came an en-
tirely new revised edition Of larger size,
with 5000 Pictorial Illustrations, then,
after interval Of a few years, Biograph
ical Dictionary of nearly 10000 Names
and Supplement of nearly 5000 New
Words were added and there has come
a new and most valuable addition, A
Gazetteer of the World, of over $4,000
Titles. The work is now not only the
Dictionary, par excellence. but a Rio-
graphical Dictionary, Gazetteer oftile
World, and great many other good
things in its many valuable Tables.

When Congress adjourned.
in March it was seen that the
constant influx of surplus
revenue into the treasury
might cause artificial con-
striction4of the money market,
and it is not improbable that
an extra session Of congress
may be needed to deal with.
the matter. No action could
be taken at the regular SEES
sion before next January at
the earliest, and this would
bring the question up on the
eve Of a Presidential election,
with the probability of no leg
islation at,a11. The increas
ing surplus will have to be
dealt with, and promptly, in
one of three ways by the re-
duction of taxation, by buy,
ing bonds at a premium, or.
by anticipating the interest
and principal Of the bonds not
yet due. The case is fairly
one Of what the French call
